Tucker Carlson has responded to the fallout from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s recent Oval Office meeting, where even longtime supporter Senator Lindsey Graham voiced criticism of the Ukrainian leader.
Following the meeting on Friday, Graham, who has been a vocal advocate for U.S. military aid to Ukraine, appeared to distance himself from Zelensky.
“Most Americans witnessing what they saw today would not want Zelensky to be their business partner, including me, and I’ve been to Ukraine nine times since the war started,” Graham stated.
Zelenskyy has lost Lindsey Graham, one of the most pro-Ukraine US Senators from either party:

He argued that Western support for Ukraine has enabled serious crimes, including arms trafficking, biological research mismanagement, and political assassinations.
Carlson issued the following statement regarding the situation:
“One of the most striking things about yesterday’s Zelensky press conference was Lindsey Graham’s reaction to it. The two are old friends, but Graham disavowed him within the hour.
This was more than just transactional disloyalty. It was scapegoating. Lindsey Graham knows what’s coming.
Over the past three years, with the tacit support of its western patrons, the Ukrainian government has committed a remarkable number of serious crimes.
The Ukrainians sold huge quantities of American weapons on the international black market at twenty cents on the dollar.
These weapons are now in the hands of armed groups around the world, including Hamas, the Mexican drug cartels and the forces now controlling Syria.
God knows what the Ukrainians have done with the pathogens in American biolabs in their country. Even US intel agencies aren’t sure.
The Ukrainians have also murdered a number of people in various countries in political assassinations, and tried to murder others, including American journalists and a European head of state.
This is all true, and it’s all going to come out at some point. Better to start blaming it on Zelensky now.”

Carlson’s remarks come after a year of increasing scrutiny on Ukraine’s use of U.S. aid and military equipment.
Reports have surfaced about American weapons ending up on the black market, with concerns over their potential use by terrorist organizations and criminal groups.
Additionally, Carlson has conducted interviews with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, in which Putin defended his invasion of Ukraine as a response to Western aggression.
During the interview, Putin claimed that NATO expansion and the U.S.’s backing of Ukraine’s government left Russia no choice but to intervene.
He also alleged that the Ukrainian government has committed human rights violations against Russian-speaking populations in the Donbas region, justifying military action as a means of protecting Russian interests.
The fallout from Zelensky’s Oval Office meeting and Graham’s unexpected criticism signals potential shifts in how some of Ukraine’s most vocal supporters in Washington may approach the ongoing conflict.
With growing concerns about accountability and the use of U.S. aid, Ukraine’s leadership could face increased pressure from both allies and critics in the months ahead.
